@ Piling

Please could you tell me what "Tevgera Ciwanen Kurdistan" means in English

Thank you

[Piling]

Easy and I could teach you some Kurdish words

Tevger : movement (political) (English phonetic 'tavgar')

Ciwan : (phonetic jwan) : youth

'a' at the end of teveger and ên at the end of ciwan indicate that these nouns are followed by adjectives : a is the feminine mark (in Kurmancî most of nouns are feminine) and' ên' is for the plural of youth.

Do you think the new movement is connected to the PKK of is it a movement for and Independent Kurdistan?

What is Kurdish for "Lazy Man" my nickname for one of my friends

Thank you I should learn some Kurdish BUT:

My friends from West Kurdistan speak and write Arabic
My friends from South Kurdistan speak and write Sorani
My friends from East Kurdistan speak perfect English
My friends from North Kurdistan speak and write TURKISH

Only the older Kurds from North Kurdistan actually speak Kurdish - I have even met some who refuse to speak Turkish or English

No, they are pro-Mustafa Barzani, pro Sheikh Said, pro Qazi Muhammad, pro Kurdistan, anti-assimilation, so not at all PKK. You can not see a single portrait of Öcalan in their office :

I don't know if they have something to do with KDP-Turkey which just opened again in Turkey.

Thank you very much for posting the link

BRILLIANT I LOVE THEM ALREADY

You may have noticed that I am pro-Mustafa Barzani, pro Sheikh Said, pro Qazi Muhammad, pro Kurdistan - especially the pro Qazi Muhammad and pro Kurdistan part

The fact they use the term 'KURDISTAN' in the name of their group is a clue that they are not PKK. Even PYD prefers to say 'Rojava' but Rojava alone.

The use of the word Rojava always annoys me

You cannot call a country "West"

Are they trying to forget that they are Kurds?

If they intend to use the name "West" then perhaps the should call it "West Ocalanistan"

Notice that they are the first to complain about 'Disunity of Kurds' … when it comes from other parties.

Exhausted. Spent all the day to prepare an exhibition of photographies about Tajeel place in Erbil.

Ate too much chocolate. Kurds KNOW that it is Easter and then oblige me to eat eggs and sweeties.

Now I will watch the 1st season of Broad church. Everybody in France praise the series.

Not the most relaxing of tunes

Perhaps you needed something to wake you up this morning and get your blood fired up before going into work
